“” TV Tuner Using the configuration options of TV / FM capture film may be limited to a certain size in MB or seconds.
A TV tuner captures analog TV signals and converts them into digital format that the computer can read. This allows you to watch TV programs on your personal computer. Then, high-performance TV tuners can output the most successful stereo sounds from a TV signal, instead of the usual sounds played by the TV. Some of these allow users to store programs on PC hard drives and have a "time shift" function - they can "freeze" and record a live action.
In addition, they have programs that capture images on the screen and allow you to add special effects and post video images on the Internet, etc. For example, you can browse the Internet and watch your favorite show in the corner of the window. ' "

Adrian and I am writing you from Sergiu through TeamViewer
When I enter the site to see the new tutorial or the new comments brought by the feedreader it gives me this error: "http://i40.tinypic.com/11m3mrr.jpg"
And when I simply enter the site and want to access the main page of the site, the old interface of the site appears, the old site that looks something like this: "http://i43.tinypic.com/29ni7m8.jpg"
I write of him for that I can not access the new site! I hope to work this out or give me advice what to do!
Thank you very much Adrian :)
Super is this tutorial, very educational, I'm looking to see how I get to price this type of tuner. Only well as many tutorials in our support of the harder we deal with English or with certain types of components and programs.
Hello've done a good job with the new software did not compare I have a problem with my tuner I have a hybrid pinochle and I hated loud sees him fail to install Calum truth is with hardly understand English and probably That's why I set it fail to Calum if you could make a videotutorial and with this kind of tiuner would be at least oki thank groaznika catch is to have a good day
Thanks to the videotutorial.ro team for this acceptance to subscribe and give me the chance to receive "up to date" information about the tutorials.
I leave aside the congratulations and words of praise for you (no not the case, since it is obvious that you are a boon for everyone) and get to the point.
They have a tuner of this type is analog only and without hardware compression (WinFast TV 2000 XP Expert) bought in 2004.
The tutorial is perfectly documented and clear to me ... now the problem arises ...
Used on xp and vista, regardless of whether it is on 32 or 64, it works perfectly. I make a capture, but when playing with media player 7 from the win the sound is not played although in the media center it is played ... the sure player that plays the image with sound is Gom.
I tried to use K-Lite, etc. AceMegaCodecs
I only used my own codec variants ... the problem remains the same ... I don't have sound on the media player in win 7. If I play the video files captured in win 7, on xp or vista they are viewed with sound.
The question comes naturally ... is it a bug in the media player on win 7 [mention that I installed all the win lime including the latest RC 1 (7068)] or tuner incompatibility with win 7?
Hoping that I was quite explicit and concise ask what a solution.
Thank you in advance.
@fanibu:
I do not think that appeared official drivers for Windows 7, will appear until you can rest assured you are confronting a troublemaker.
The bin is change the operating system with XP or Vista.
You can still attempt to use another player and because media player is most unfortunate spy in the world.
Thank you very much Cristi ... for now let's wait for win 7 to really put itself ...!
For those who have this type of tuner I come with a small supplement, with the consent of Cristi course to make it more attractive although this tutorial is quite attractive:
Right click on the icon at the bottom bar (on WinFast wizard ... setting ... check MCE Remote and enable)
Now the remote control switches from the tuner to Media Center from XP with Media Center or Vista, to Media Center ... that is, it will open MCE from OS. We make the settings required by MCE and here we can enter the windows games we can play with the remote control sitting comfortably in the armchair or in bed according to your preferences. Try it and you will see that it is fun.
To switch back on the tuner and execute what Cristi said (watch TV channels or recorder, deactivate MCE Remote and use the tuner on the remote control. Restart the PC ... Cristi's words, many things can be done with this type of tuner.
I was not as careful if specified remote computer can open the TV tuner, I personally use this thing when I wake up in the morning and want to watch TV through computer
of course you can and close, all of telecomanda.practic rebooting things I love about TV tuner from leadtek.mai going to set it up as a webcam on mesenger in case someone wants to see a TV station
@fanibu: FANIBU's right, I forgot to mention in the tutorial, remote control TV tuners (not all) has support for Media Center, that sit in armchair and ordering Media Center in Vista or XP media center, you can also turn on and PC remote control.
THANK Fanibu for completion, that's the spirit that we want to have all the videotutorial.ro and beyond.
